Olympic Hockey, anyone?

Anyone else see the womens hockey game today? The shop was at a stand still, circled around the radio during the last period/OT. Its a pretty serious deal up here.... LOL

The US gave us a run for our money but they had to know deep down that hockeys our game All kidding aside, great hockey from both teams. Both top notch teams. Just not nop notch enough to end our streak

Looking forward to canada winning th.... I mean... lookin forward to the mens hockey game as well! LOL

I watched the game and was feeling cautiously optimistic with less then 5 to go. Congrats to the Canucks for playing to the buzzer and then some...although I would have liked to see the refs "let them play" in OT.

The US Ladies seem to be taking some flack for looking so bummed with their Silver Metals but I can tell you after losing some state and tournament championship games in hockey as a coach, being the loser takes a while to shake.

Team USA did play an amazing game. I can understand being bumbed out and looking upset after being 50 seconds away from a gold medal. I dont think anyone should be giving them flack.

I think it's kind of funny when you look at the rosters from other countries, quite a few of the players are currently playing in the USA.

Yeah we just played Latvia and one of their players was canadian!

Always did enjoy Hockey, only thing I miss from the DC area, used to get tickets to the Caps all the time. From box seats to nose bleed, didn't matter always had a good time. Loving the hockey I'm seeing so far in the games, from both the US an Canada.

Sirscrapalot - TJ Oshie has more moves than a bag full of snakes! - Brendan Morrison, on Oshie's shootout win over Russia.

Watching Finland vs Sweden now...These 5am games have been awesome the past week...I'm going to have serious withdrawals next week.

Game On! Hope this helps...

Im sorry it didnt work out lousypirate!

Another great game but Canada was the better team...IMO that was the Gold Game there. At least I still get to cheer on North America on Sunday morning.

I watched 10 minutes of the first period at work. the middle ten lol.

I thought USA played their best in the first 10 minutes and the last 10 minutes. One of the better games I've watched this week but I have a tough time watching games that I know the outcome of.
